Message Summary

End users will now be able to change their external call routing settings directly from the Teams app, allowing them to decide how incoming PSTN calls are routed. Calls can be redirected based on existing unanswered call settings or sent to voicemail. This new capability provides more flexibility for handling customer communications.

How this will affect your organization:

No direct impact as feature is default OFF by policy, if you want your users to get this feature then enable the feature from policy.

Navigate to Calling Policy and set the parameter InboundPstnCallRoutingTreatment to UserOverride. This will enable the feature for your organization, users can then navigate to calling settings and set their external call routing preference.
